Netlify CTO Dana Lawson: Writing code is no longer the job
Netlify CTO Dana Lawson emphasizes that writing code is no longer the primary job for developers, citing decades of experience building guardrails to prevent production issues. This shift matters as it highlights the importance of infrastructure and operations in software development. Developers should focus on higher-level tasks and delegate lower-level tasks to infrastructure and automation tools. This change requires a mindset shift for developers to prioritize infrastructure and operations skills.
